00:00Hello drama lovers, I'm Eli and as always I welcome you to The Ark of Dramas.
00:07In today's video I will talk about the accusations of alleged tax evasion against Kim Song-ho
00:13and some news from the world of Korean dramas, so let's get to it.
00:19We begin today's video by talking about the hot topic of the moment,
00:23Because a few days ago a media outlet reported that Kim Song-ho managed a production agency run by his family
00:32and accused him of possibly having evaded taxes through this company.
00:39According to the press, Kim Song-ho is the CEO of that company,
00:44while the internal director and the auditor would be their parents.
00:48In response to these accusations, Kim Song-ho's agency, Fan Tayo, issued two different statements.
00:56Let's see what the first statement said in which Fan Tayo denied the accusations.
01:02The agency said,

01:08We would like to issue an official statement regarding the information published today.
01:14which concerns the operation of Kim Song-ho as a sole proprietorship.

01:28and is diligently following all legal and tax-related procedures
01:35corresponding to their contractual relationship and current activities.
01:40We would like to clarify that there is absolutely no problem related to the contract.
01:46or the activities between Kim Song-ho and Fan Tayo.
01:49The sole proprietorship mentioned by the press was established in the past
01:54with the sole purpose of theatrical production and activities related to theater
02:00and it was not created with the intention of avoiding or evading taxes.
02:04However, after Kim Song-ho transferred to Fan Tayo,
02:10This corporation's current business operations ceased approximately one year ago.
02:16and the company is currently in the process of officially dissolving
02:23in accordance with relevant laws and procedures.
